This year for my birthday, Dixie (with some help from our Mother) made me this adorable bag. I have been wanting a new bag, but couldn't find one that suited me. So, Dixie, being the sweet sister that she is, made me one! This was a new adventure for her. She has just started sewing! Didn't she do an amazing job! Oh! And she designed it herself, without a pattern! Amazing, right?

She was going to line it with polka dots, but couldn't find what she was looking for. So, she went with the paisley. Pret-ty good choice, since I'm all about westerns, and cowboys! :)

Love the pocket - of course I am a sucker for traditional fabrics :) Stopping in from today's hop to say hey and follow - hope you have time to visit soon too :) Would love a follow via GFC and G+. Have a great day! http://shaunanosler.blogspot.com/

My Bible!

"Though the cover is worn, and the pages are torn, and though places bear traces of tears. Yet more precious than gold, is this Book worn and old, that can shatter and scatter my fears. When I prayerfully look, in this precious old Book, many treasures and pleasures I see; many tokens of love, from the Father above; Who is nearest and dearest to me. This old Book is a guide, 'tis a friend by my side; it will lighten and brighten my way.And with each promise I find, it soothes and gladdens my mind, as I read it and heed it today.To this Book will I cling, of it's worth will I sing;Though great losses and crosses be mine. For I cannot despair, though surrounded by care, While possessing this blessing divine."
